Dear Council Members : I am appalled by statements made by City Manager Alex McIntyre. In the Almanac of January 22, 2014, he is quoted as stating that Menlo Park is "putting out crap". He adds "we look like an unprofessional organization". These remarks were made in response to a new city logo pushed by Mr. McIntyre. The new logo, basically unchanged from the original, is costing the city over $48,000. When in the past did previous city managers and council members remark about our logo and staff being unprofessional and "crap"? In fact, it is Mr McIntyre who is the unprofessional party to this ridiculous waste of our city dollars. All the city council members, including the Mayor need to investigate Mr McIntyre's needless spending. Council members have to stop these unnecessary and wasteful expenditures.
